  • - The study investigates volatile thiols in rapeseed oil using methods like headspace solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography to identify and quantify these aroma compounds.
  • - Four newly identified thiols in microwaved rapeseed oil contribute to appealing odors reminiscent of sesame, roasted meat, and garlic, with their concentrations varying across 13 rapeseed varieties.
  • - The research reveals that 3-sulfanyl-1-hexanol has the strongest odor impact, and interactions between these thiols and the oil’s characteristic odor further enhance the overall aroma profile of rapeseed oil.

Article Abstract

Volatile thiols are important aroma components of rapeseed oil. This study established an identification and quantification method of volatile thiols via headspace solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography-sulfur chemiluminescence detection. Four thiols (phenylmethanthiol, 3-sulfanyl-1-hexanol, 2-methyl-3-furanthiol, and 2-furylmethanthiol) were newly identified in microwaved rapeseed oil, and cause sesame, roasted meat, and garlic odors. The total concentration of the four thiols in rapeseed oil obtained from 13 rapeseed varieties ranged from 11.47 to 153.72 μg/kg. Determination of the threshold revealed that 3-sulfanyl-1-hexanol possessed the highest odor active value (7565), followed by phenylmethanthiol (3589), 2-furylmethanthiol (626), and 2-methyl-3-furanthiol (28). Further, perceptual interactions between volatile thiols and characteristic odor (3-butenyl isothiocyanate) of rapeseed oil were evaluated by Feller's addition model and S-curve method, which revealed that 2-methyl-3-furanthiol, 2-furylmethanthiol, phenylmethanthiol, and 3-sulfanyl-1-hexanol present a positive effect with 3-butenyl isothiocyanate. This study provides deep insights into the impact of sulfur-containing compounds on the aroma of rapeseed oil.

The catalytic performance of Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB) immobilized on silica-coated magnetic nanoparticles was evaluated for biodiesel production via methanolysis of rapeseed oil. Two different covalent immobilization approaches were compared to assess the effect of immobilization protocols on lipase efficiency. The first approach involved immobilization of CALB on amine-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), which targeted the Lys-rich regions of the enzyme.

Platform chemicals from renewable resources with broad applications are highly desirable, particularly for replacing fossil-based monomers. Bifunctional aliphatic ester-aldehydes, accessible via regioselective hydroformylation of unsaturated oleochemicals, can be converted into linear ω-amino/ω-hydroxy esters and dicarboxylic acids-key building blocks for biobased aliphatic polycondensates. However, their success hinges on efficient, economically viable production, with catalyst recycling being critical.

Palm and palm kernel oils are preferred ingredients in industrial food processing for baked goods and chocolate-based desserts due to their unique properties, such as their distinctive melting behaviors. However, ongoing concerns about the social and environmental sustainability of palm oil production, coupled with consumer demands for palm oil-free products, have prompted the industry to seek alternatives which avoid the use of other tropical or hydrogenated fats. This project investigated replacing palm oils with chemically unhardened Swiss sunflower or rapeseed oils.
